MajorMalfunction is right! If you read some dating books you'll notice that all of them say to refrain from giving visual compliments to early.
It present you to be overagressive and to eager for something. The women will think that something will be sex, because many guys are interested in just that.
Remeber that she wants romance, not to be told how beautiful she is.
Women think your trying to get laid if you call them beautiful.

Na, forget about what I said. Women are so unpredictable, that not even they know what they want. Us guys are just blind-men with canes. Feeling our way through the female emotional minefield. Praying that we don't tap the wrong spot incorrectly. Sometimes you lose, other times you win and don' t understand why. Carry on brave soldier. It's a tough battle when you're in love with the enemy.

Problem #1: Reading a lot of dating books.
Dating books and sites have loads of different and muddled and conflicting information. Some of it is fairly reasonable, but then you have people saying stuff like, "well hot girls know they're hot. So you should try to take her down a few notches. Go up to her and insult her and tell her she's wearing cheap shoes."
Terrible!
Practice and experience are the best teachers.

I've never heard anyone give that kind of advice, that would be stupid.
Never insult a girl, never. If she's really hot, like a 9 or 10, what you might want to do is neg her. for example, only telling her she has cheap shoes is an insult. to make it a neg, what u would want to do is add a compliment to the insult, and don't make the insult so obvious. So instead of saying, "you're wearing cheap shoes", trying saying something like, Hey, those are nice shoes, did you buy them new?" And keep a straight face the whole time.

I am assuming you think it is?

While generally I would agree with this, I think you should stay true to who you are and if you must compliment a woman pick the first thing ( after breasts and legs ) that you notice.
I guess if thats her shoes then so be it. She can filter that how she wants to..
I just had to say that I would see that as gay. May not be how every woman would see it though.
